"Hi, this is Doug on behalf of expertvillage.com. We're going over the easy steps of sleight of hand using a coin as manipulation in the effect called the French Drop. What we've gone over so far is bringing the hands together. The Drop and Steal, and now what we call is the Fake Apart. That is bringing the hands apart together. One will fall to your side, very important this falls to your side very naturally. Your hand of course has the coin, containing the coin. You want to just let it relax on this side of you. The side of you or just kind of let it fall and relax. Again how that falls into place was kind of come apart, and just fall there naturally. You want to actually practice a few times the Fake and Steal and the pull apart, actually grabbing hold of the coin and feeling what your hands feel like. Again, it's about fooling yourself into thinking the coin is here and you will also fool the rest of the audience. Again, we're going to do that in an actual form. This is very important in a lot of magic is to actually do it as you are presenting it just to see how it feels out. So again, you're going to actually grab the coin, fake apart. Again, thinking the coin is here, of course it's easy because it's there. And practicing again, using that muscle and stretching that muscle. And thinking the coin is here, no coin is here. So when you actually go ahead and do the Fake Apart, you remember the coin is here, when it's not. And the coin is actually relaxed down to your side."
